Of course this is only conjecture, but suppose you have people like yourself go thru with this lawsuit against the democrats.
Being the 'compassionate' folks they are, they don't object or fight it. What they do is call on their wealthy allies, (people like Bill Gates & those corp.'s that succumbed to Jesse Jackson's tactics), and pay up.

Now then, they aren't going to stop there. Because in the liberal mind, it's the 'evil' Republicans, especially the Conservatives, who are really responsible for the plight of the blacks.
And these Republicans will not be let off the hook. It will now be the dems, assuming a 'moral highground' who say, "OK, even though we are innocent of any wrong doing, we magnaminously paid up. Now it's time to go after the real scoundrels...the Republicans!"

They stir up public sentiment to their 'new' cause, (remember, the facts are irrelevant to them), corral all democrat politicians together until 'justice' is served, and pass something like a 'Reparations Redemption Act' in the U.S. Congress.

To be honest, it wouldn't surprise me to see them make this a major issue before 2004. With our nation's 'first black president' & Hillary standing at it's forefront.

This makes absolutely no sense. By the way, you're not alone in this, but what is up with the use of a definite article to modify the word "blacks?" I don't get it.

Anyway, using strict political names, Democrats are responsible for slavery, not Republicans. Democrats can not say that "we are innocent of any wrongdoing." Sheriff Bull Connor was not a Republican. Dixiecrats were responsible for Jim Crow, not Republicans. But going back to slavery, look at which party represented the South during those times. It's overwhelmingly Democrat.

This issue must be killed, and killed now. It has already gained too much momentum.
